Evidence / storm surfaces

How Boone saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 23, 2026 · Boone, CO

Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.

Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Boone, CO on Jun 23, 2026 Estimated size field

Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.

Max size 2.25"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 23, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Boone, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 23, 2026 sits in Boone's hail record.

This was Boone's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 22, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Boone at 2.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 23, 2026 convective day was bigger than Boone: the same system put hail over 330 other tracked cities, 30 of them in Colorado. Nearest: Avondale (13 miles southwest, up to 2"); Yoder (24 miles north, up to 1.5"); Colorado Springs (31 miles northwest, up to 2.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 8 Boone storm dates on a live map — both surfaces, the reports, and a replay — and the same map is where you draw the swath. This page rebuilds nightly.

Severe hail signal

What 2.25" hail means for Boone roofs.

Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Aug 20, 2026.
